Observational data
The .zip file contains 6 .csv files including all microphysical measurements taken at the Jungfraujoch station during the two periods of interest:
- 25-28 January 2014 : northwesterly-winds (NW)
- 29 January - 1 February 2014 : southeasterly-winds (SE)
The total Ice Crystal Number Concentration (ICNC; reported in L⁻¹) is measured by the two-dimensional stereo hydrometeor spectrometer (2D-S; Lawson et al., 2006) over the size range 10-1280 μm. The total ice water content (IWC; reported in gm⁻³) is also derived by the 2D-S data using the Brown and Francis (1995) mass-diameter relationship. Finally, the quantification of the liquid water content (LWC; reported in gm⁻³) is based on the liquid droplet size distribution data derived from a DMT cloud droplet probe (CDP; Lance et al., 2010) over the size range 2-50 μm. The frequency of the measurements in the .csv files is 30 min, to match the output frequency of the model. Datetime is also reported in the files (DD/MM/YYYY h:mm) in UTC.
Acknowledgment: Collection and pre-processing of the microphysical measurements has been performed by Gary Lloyd (gary.lloyd@manchester.ac.uk). More details about the instrumentation during the CLACE2014 campaign can be found in Lloyd et al. (2015).
